The City Council is asking for your help planning our City’s change to by-district Council elections. Half Moon Bay, like over 90 cities and 165 school districts across the state, is making a change in how voters elect the City Council.

Beginning in 2020, City Council members will be elected district by district, instead of the current at-large citywide elections in which all voters have the ability to vote for all City Council seats.

We need your help to make this change!

​The primary goal when drawing Council election districts is to draw lines that keep neighborhoods together. So the Council wants to know: what do you consider the boundaries of your neighborhood? You can share your specific neighborhood thoughts, or draw a map yourself for the Council and your fellow residents to consider.

September 4 Update: on a 4-0 vote, the City Council introduced the ordinance to adopt map 106b. The ordinance is scheduled to return to the Council for a final “second reading” on September 18th.
